  • the computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored.
  • a computer-readable recording medium may include magnetic storage media (e.g. floppy disk, hard disk, ROM, USB memory, etc.), optical reading media (e.g. CD-ROM, DVD, Blu-ray, etc.) and carrier wave ( Storage media such as, for example, transmission over the Internet.
  • the computer-readable recording medium also includes a form in which computer-readable codes are stored in a distributed manner in a computer system connected through a network.

  • the slave ALD If the slave ALD is notified of the configuration command reception from the master ALD, it transmits a confirmation signal to the master ALD (S1012). The slave ALD ignores the new configuration command even if the slave ALD receives a new configuration command from the port from the master ALD.

At this time, the master ALD may transmit the configuration complete signal to the base station first, or may transmit the configuration complete signal to the slave ALD first. That is, the order of S1024 and S1026 may be reversed.
  • the configuration completion signal When the base station receives the configuration completion signal through the port (S1024), the configuration is terminated.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de commande d'antennes dans un système de stations de base et un procédé de configuration s'y rapportant. Selon un aspect du présent mode de réalisation, un procédé pour la commande d'une pluralité d'antennes dans un système de dispositifs de ligne d'antenne (ALD) multiples, comprenant une pluralité d'ALD et une pluralité de ports connectés à une pluralité de stations de base, comprend les étapes de : réception, par un ALD quelconque parmi la pluralité d'ALD, d'une commande de configuration en provenance d'une station de base quelconque parmi la pluralité de stations de base ; la transmission, par l'ALD ayant reçu la commande de configuration, de la commande de configuration à chacun des autres ALD ; et le réglage, par chacun des ALD de la pluralité d'ALD, d'une antenne à régler ou d'un port à connecter conformément à la commande de configuration. Selon un autre aspect du présent mode de réalisation, l'invention concerne un système d'ALD multiples pour le réglage d'une pluralité d'antennes, le système comprenant : une pluralité de ports connectés respectivement à une pluralité de stations de base ; et une pluralité d'ALD pour le réglage de la pluralité d'antennes, chacun des ALD parmi la pluralité d'ALD étant connectés les uns aux autres afin de communiquer les uns avec les autres et réglant une antenne à régler ou un port à connecter conformément à une commande de configuration reçue en provenance d'une station de base quelconque parmi la pluralité de stations de base.
